I like it because it's an old school track, I like it because there is history, I like it because it is fast, I like it because it is woodsy, and I have a fondness for those types of track settings. I like it because it has nothing to do with Tilke. I like it because it is a drivers track that calls for balls in some turns and having to defend your position at multiple points in the circuit because you CAN pass at multiple points in the circuit.


The corners aren't designed to be the technical challenges to a modern F1 car that Tilke thinks an F1 circuit should consist of but it is still perfectly suited for having modern F1 cars run on, maybe making it easier for the drivers to get to the limits of the car. Every part of the track is instantly recognisable so you know exactly what you're watching and what is going on.

I like Eau Rouge and the nature of the circuit, twists and turns through what looks like a forest. As foresty as it comes anyway...since the old Hockenheim was King until they decapitated it.


It's a wierd sound, walking through the woods in the centre of the track with nothing in sight and hearing the cars screaming up the hill.

Some of you don't like wine???? :yikes:


It's not as mind blowing, odd and downright wrong as an F1 fan that doesn't get excited by Spa.


Only one person in this thread is actually averse to wine, it seems (andrew).

And as for Spa, only one person has said they aren't as thrilled by Spa as others (LRW). I only said that Monza happens to be my favourite of all.

Just to clarify matters :D


And, bar Scotty, no-one has come up with a reason why they do like Spa!!

:sheep:


I believe that I have already told you why I like Spa. Seeing as you missed it - it's :censored: awesome.

:rolleyes:

You, as usual are missing the point. I wanted specific reasons why you liked it. 'its :censored: awesome' is not a reason.

I like Spa because:

It's a very scenic circuit,
Long wide sweeping corners, the cars look great sweeping around it,
Plenty of overtaking
Probably the most likely circuit on the calender to produce an interesting race,
Big tests for the driver, it appears to be a circuit when talented drivers in poor cars can still perform well,
The unpredictable weather.

Picky today aren't we? :rolleyes:

It's a proper old style track that is unique in toady's modern F1 and presents a unique challenge to both drivers and machinery. Overtaking is possible without artificial gimmicks and the track and surrounding are looks beutiful.

That do?

Oh yeah I fogot, it's :censored: awesome!

Today I am annoyed that I seem to get taken for granted as I always try to please everybody all of the time. I am very close to saying "fook it, time to do something to please myself for once"
